Each panel inspected and detailed to provide you with the highest quality panel on the market. We seal the front with four layers of sizing and cover the back with vinyl making both the front and back an impervious moisture barrier. We offer 11 glorious canvas surfaces in this 4x5 size, which you can expediently find in the Explore hyperlink(s) below.

 

True 5:4 Photography Proportion - 4x5 Size

The 5:4 aspect ratio is common to both art and portrait photography, as it creates a visually pleasing format for the human figure and face. The balanced compositional format can help to create a sense of symmetry and harmony in your artwork. The 5:4 ratio has a familiar "feel", as it was commonly used in early computer monitors. Additionally, you might consider trying some relatively unknown sizes in this same proportion that we call Lost Sizes As an artist, you get the best of both worlds, because you still get to use the same aesthetically appealing 5:4 format and use rare or novel sizes that help make your art stand-out.

Vegan Ground:

There are no animal products that make-up the sizing and the primer for this fine canvas. Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue. In today's rapidly advancing world, there are many more choices available for artists who prefer non-animal based products that perform far better than their animal-based predecessors.

An all-around great canvas, extraordinary value, and our top selling canvas surface across all our products. It is our premium quality all-purpose canvas suitable for most all techniques.

Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Primer Pigment

This primer contains premium-grade Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) white pigment, renowned for its exceptional performance in acrylic priming. Its standout feature is its enduring whiteness, coupled with remarkable flexibility that persists over time. In contrast to other pigments such as zinc dioxide, Titanium Dioxide maintains its resilience, preventing brittleness as it ages. This quality ensures that artworks retain their integrity and will stand the test of time.

 

Our Hardcore Pro Pro Canvas Panels are the flattest on the market. They are made using MDF (medium density fiberboard) which is the highest quality engineered wood board on the market. Moisture in the board can cause undesirable results to the panel and your artwork, which is why we size the board with four layers on the front before the canvas is mounted, thereby defending against moisture getting into the board and underneath your artwork.

Canvas Panels should be as flat as possible, otherwise, they don't display well in a frame, and can create spaces between the artwork and the frame. A bowed panel is also a sign of having been impacted by the effect of moisture. Canvas can shrink, even after it is mounted on the board. For this reason, Masterpiece® developed a unique proprietary process that stress-relieves each panel, thereby virtually eliminating the bow that is commonly found in competing panel products. Hardcore Pro Canvas Panels provide a stable foundation for your art.

The most valuable possession you can own is an open heart. The most powerful weapon you can be is an instrument of peace. ♦ Elbert Hubbard

Hubbard, with his deep philosophical insights, often explored themes of compassion and unity. Art, as a medium, has always been a conduit for emotions, a bridge that connects hearts across time and space. An open heart, as Hubbard alludes to, allows artists to tap into the universal human experience, creating art that resonates deeply with audiences. The Roycroft community, with its emphasis on camaraderie and collaboration, reflected Hubbard's belief in the power of openness and harmony.

For artists, the call to be an instrument of peace can be seen as the ability to evoke emotions, provoke thought, and inspire change through our creations. Hubbard's words serve as a poignant reminder that the true essence of art lies not just in technique and skill but in its capacity to touch souls and bring about harmony in the works we create.
